------------------------------------

             Summary: Provide slider dependencies as a self contained versioned 
tarball
                 Key: SLIDER-777
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLIDER-777
             Project: Slider
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: build, client
    Affects Versions: Slider 0.70
            Reporter: Sumit Mohanty
             Fix For: Slider 0.80


Currently, slider client picks up all the dependencies from the lib folder. 
This causes an issue for code that embed Slider client where either they need 
to specify a folder which has the all the required (but no more) jar files or 
their own lib directory which contains jar files of the embedding application 
as well.

Slider should explore (similar to Tez or MR) the possibility of packaging all 
dependencies into a tarball that can be stored in a version aware fashion in 
HDFS or local FS.

A Slider client can choose to use a specific version when creating the an 
instance of an application. Now, it is possible for a client of certain version 
to create an app using another version of the tarball. _This requires further 
investigation in terms of how easy to debug the issues if there is no 
compatibility between versions._
